I was talking to a retired gentleman and he said for years the academic painters like Bougereau were unseen and forgotten, and in the 1970s the museums dug them out again. Is the same thing happening now? I don't see the same connection between Bougereau and anything from the 70s that I see between color field and much contemp abstraction. As you point out here re: Chris Martin and others.
